Reporting Served and Unserved Students Unserved students refer to: Those who are eligible and enrolled, but cannot be awarded due to the institution’s lack of funds Don’t forget to report your summer-eligible students! Those awarded with institutional funds due to the lack of SNG funding *Unserved data should be carefully vetted for eligibility and accuracy *A student may be on both lists, but not for the same term 7
